The Anti-slug Metarex M Compo provides effective protection against the attack of these gastropods that are so dangerous for crops. Its powerful formulation and instant action ensure quick and easy elimination, and it is effective in any environmental context (humidity, fog, etc.).
Description
The Anti-slug Metarex M Compo is a granular product designed to protect crops from the attacks of these terrestrial gastropods. Its main active ingredient is metaldehyde (2.5% w/w), a pesticide that is highly effective and works through ingestion. Once the mollusks consume the product, the reaction is immediate: the snails and slugs become immobilized and begin to secrete an excessive amount of slime, which destroys their mucus-producing cells and causes their death.
Snails and slugs are herbivores with a preference for calcium-rich leaves and fresh stems, leading them to cause significant damage to plants. Their activity is concentrated in the wettest months of spring (March and April), which is precisely when crops are starting to grow and are more susceptible to damage.
This molluscicide is highly resistant and effective in adverse conditions, such as environments with fog or high humidity, where snails and slugs tend to be more active, especially during the night and early morning hours. Additionally, this product is formulated with a bittering agent that deters pets from ingesting it, ensuring safe application in areas where pets may be present.

Brutally effective, you can see the results the next day with the whole trail of slime. Not a single one left near the stems. A must-have if you grow outdoors.
Translated from Spanish
Brutal la eficacia, se ven los resultados al día siguiente con todo el rastro de baba. No queda ni una cerca de los tallos. Imprescindible si cultivas en exterior.

The best thing to protect freshly planted shoots. As soon as they see the granules they go straight for it and problem solved. It saved this year's harvest for me.
Translated from Spanish

Hi team, a quick question, if I apply it in a greenhouse with high humidity does it hold up just as well? For now the results are spectacular, you can tell the quality of Metarex. Thanks!

Works like a charm for slugs now that it started raining. Knocks them dead overnight and my lettuces can finally breathe. Very happy with the shipping from GB.

Works great to clear the garden of snails, especially with the morning moisture. Giving it 4 stars only because the 500g tub is a bit too small for my plot, but it's damn effective.
Translated from Spanish
Va genial para limpiar el jardín de caracoles, sobre todo con la humedad de la mañana. Le pongo 4 estrellas solo porque el bote de 500g se me hace corto para mi parcela, pero efectivo es un rato.
